Jun 2 2008How to Make a Better 'Transformers 2': More Transformers
There are few plot holes that can't be filled with enough giant robots. Thus, Transformers 2 screenwriter Robert Orci has made a comment on Don Murphy's message board that hints that there may be more Transformers in the next film. Like twenty:
I'd love and think we could almost barely manage ten on each side, with some front and center and others as more supporting.
"Barely manage ten on each side"? I don't think you've given yourselves enough credit. If you avoid pesky characterization altogether, I'm certain you can get at least 50 or 60 robots on-screen--at once, even--especially if you make some of them explode as soon as they enter the frame. Never forget that even if you stack a house of cards to collapse, you're still left with a pretty impressive mess of cards, which you can then throw more cards on top of, and then exchange those cards with robots.

Here is the funniest thing about Transformers.
Jazz, the ethnic robot, he lands at a Cadillac dealership, scans all the cars and picks.....wait for it.....the pontiac.
I'm just saying, why is a pontiac at a cadillac dealership and the black robot picks it?

Animating and rendering those things is a bitch. That's why there can't be too many.
